Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 13th June 2010

nowpanicking

Hi

Was hoping for a NSD yesterday, but ended up spending £1.79 on calpol... kind of necessary tho! This leaves £1.81 so hopefully will be within target. Think this is the least I've ever spent in one week ... this was my first time tho, so I'll see if it continues

Well, I've not done brilliantly this week, but I forgot that I was going out last night, so my budget did not compensate!

Total for the week:
£6 on Glamour magazines (for the Benefit makeup, so kind of saved £39!:money:)
£1.45 Krispy Kreme Donut
£11 on drinks last night
£3 for lunch today

Total:£21.45, so I am red this week. I am going to step out for next week, as I'm off to Glastonbury. Think that might be expensive . . . :eek: . . but so much fun

:cool: I am new to this but very able to keep to the minimum, so no more than a £5 spend this week up to 26th June.

Do I meet the criteria for joining this exclusive club?

Loads of debt so every penny counts .....

Good morning everyone!

I was green all week, but slipped up yesterday after joining the No To the Bike Parking Tax demo and donating the loose change in my pocket which caused me to go £3.50 over budget, finishing in the red with £73.50 out of my pledged £70.

Next week I have only £30 to last me until pay day (Friday), so I will pledge £30 ... I just might have to do some eBaying on Monday and Tuesday to raise some extra cash!

Thanks as ever Pointy for keeping this thread going, and have a good week everyone!

Good morning, people. Checking in to report a spend of £7.50 last week - so this makes me green. And I am going down to £5 for next week, please.

Hope everyone is doing well

Not really sure where I stand with the budget this week as things went a little crazy on my days off. Think I've not spent more than my budgeted allowance for the trip or my weekly budget. Put me as a red anyway please pointy as I feel guilty if I have a green and it's not true!!

Thanks as ever.:T
